In September 2007 the New Democracy Party won a slim majority of seats in the unicameral Vouli (parliament) in free and fair elections, and Konstantinos Karamanlis remained the prime minister. Civilian authorities generally maintained effective control of the security forces. The government generally respected the human rights of its citizens; however, there were problems in several areas. Human rights abuses reported during the year included: reports of abuse by security forces, particularly of undocumented immigrants and Roma; overcrowding and harsh conditions in some prisons; detention of undocumented migrants in squalid conditions; some legal restrictions on freedom of speech (although not enforced in practice); restrictions and administrative obstacles faced by members of non-Orthodox religions, including serious delays in receiving permits; detention and deportation of unaccompanied or separated immigrant minors, including asylum seekers; failure to provide adequate protection to victims of domestic violence; discrimination against Romani children in education; exploitation of Romani children through begging and forced labor; trafficking in persons; limits on the ability of ethnic minority groups to self-identify; and discrimination against and social exclusion of ethnic minorities, particularly Roma. A large number of Roma lacked access to adequate housing, basic medical care, public services, and employment opportunities.

  • Base Metal Mineralisation in the Evros and Rhodope

Herzig (Editors), 1988. Base metal sulphide deposits in sedimentary and volcanic environments. Proceedings of the DMG-GDMB-SGA- Meeting Aachen, 1985. Special Publication No. 5 of the Society for Geology Applied to Mineral Deposits. Springer-Verlag, Berlin, Heidelberg, p.168-181. Abstract The stratiform and vein base metal sulphide mineralisation of the Evros region has been emplaced during three major metallogenetic periods: the Pre-, Early- and Mid-Alpidic orogenic era. The Pre-Alpidic mineralisation is associated with a metamorphosed ophiolitic mafic-ultramafic sequence (Rhodope Massif), the Early Alpidic with tholeiitic metabasalt (Circum-Rhodope Belt) and the Mid-Alpidic mineralisation has its major development in Tertiary sedimentary and calc-alkaline igneous rocks. These types of mineralisation, depending on their geotectonic setting, are considered to be similar to that of the Limassol Forest Plutonic Complex (Rhodope Massif), to volcanic-exhalative and analogous to Cyprus volcanogenic massive sulphides (Circum- Rhodope Belt), and to stratiform sediment hosted and veins of volcanic affiliation (Tertiary volcano-sedimentary basins). 1. Introduction The Evros region is situated in north-eastern Hellas and is bounded to the north and east by Bulgaria and Turkey (Fig. 1). It shows a history of some minor exploration and mining activity which started during the Turkish and Bulgarian occupation of Thrace in the late 19th and early 20th century.
